The night was dark and the streets were empty. The small supermarket in the distance let out a bit of light. Although it was weak in the lonely night, it was still able to provide temporary warmth to the destitute people.

Tang Xiaotang stood not far away, staring at the map, there was a yellow symbol, which appeared in the supermarket.

Her target had finally appeared this time.

The world of the mission this time was a transition from a lonely faith civilization to a technological civilization. People no longer believed in so-called gods or even denied their existence. They fell into a chaotic battle like they had lost their way, their numbers dwindling rapidly. Due to the lack of faith, all the gods had fallen or fallen into a deep slumber, with the exception of one god.

Death.

which was also the objective of Tang Xiaotang's mission this time.

Death's duty was to harvest the lost souls and guide them in the right direction. War caused countless people to die, and countless souls to be taken away by Death, so only Death had not completely lost his power.

But Death had lost his power because he had fallen in love with a human.

Death God who has lost his power is unable to take away the souls of those who have passed away. Countless human souls piled up in the human world, producing strong resentment. Before the world could completely turn into a technological civilization, it was destroyed by the negative impact of the accumulation of these souls.

Tang Xiaotang's mission was to not let the Death God fall in love with that human and guide him back to the path that he should have taken.

The mission this time was very difficult. First of all, the target of the mission was not a human being, but a god. Although it was a god of death, he was much stronger than a human being. Secondly, she couldn't let him fall in love with that human being, which was even more difficult. More importantly, she wanted to guide him on the path that he should have taken. This is the hardest part.

How could he put him on the path he should have taken?

And most unfortunately, she came at a very bad time. When she came, Death had already fallen in love with that human and had lost most of his strength.

But that wasn't important. The most important thing was how to find him. The heavens knew that she had come to this world ten years ago, but the traces of death were unpredictable. In order to chase after him, she had followed him throughout the world and ran for ten years.

Tang Xiaotang sighed, and then resolutely walked forward.

The small supermarket that was opened in the town had become a temporary resting place for many homeless people. When Tang Xiaotang walked in, she immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Not for anything else, because she was alone.

In this chaotic world, it was not safe for a single woman to walk alone. If a girl dared to walk alone, not only would she have extraordinary abilities, but she would also have a body like Tang Xiaotang's. Sorry about the audience.

The owners of those glances lost interest as soon as they saw the long scar on her face. They continued to laze around in a corner, eating their bread slowly.

Tang Xiaotang's gaze swept across the supermarket once, then stopped at the top of a row of shelves. There was a black cloaked figure sitting there, and below him was a woman dressed in shabby clothing, with children in tow.

No one else was aware of that person's existence, including the woman. She was looking at the prices of the goods on the shelves, as if she didn't notice the black cloak that was hanging in front of her.

Tang Xiaotang's gaze fell on the woman, then shifted to the child in her embrace, as her gaze darkened.

Death will appear in one place, and someone will die there … This child was most likely going to die.

Sure enough, in the next moment, the child violently cried out. His face was flushed red, and soon after, he became silent.

A faint white halo of light floated out from the child's body. Then, Tang Xiaotang saw that the black figure had moved.

A book floated in front of him. He slowly opened it and flipped to a certain page. It emitted a faint light. The halo of light slowly floated towards the book and slowly disappeared into the light.

The moment he turned around, Tang Xiaotang saw his face.

It was a skeleton.

Death stretched out his long bony hand, and the white joints of his spine took hold of the book in front of him and tucked it into his cloak.

Seeing that he was about to disappear from the supermarket, Tang Xiaotang anxiously followed. Leaving the cries of the women and the boss's berating behind, she ran into the night.

The black cape fluttered faster and faster, looking as if he was about to disappear into the night again, Tang Xiaotang was already so tired that she could not take it anymore.

In these ten years, she had been playing this sort of chasing game with the Grim Reaper. It seemed like she wouldn't be able to catch up to him today.

However, it didn't matter. She had plenty of time anyway, so she didn't believe that she would never be able to catch up to him.

By this time, she had reached a narrow and deadly alley. Tang Xiaotang was acutely aware that someone was approaching from behind.

"Who?"

She turned around and similarly saw a tall and sturdy man slowly blocking the exit from the back. Tang Xiaotang could clearly see the obscene smile on his face.

Good memory told her that this was a man from the supermarket. His purpose for following her here at such a time was self-evident.

Tang Xiaotang's gaze darkened. Today was truly unlucky. However, she wasn't afraid of him. Although she couldn't catch up to the god of death, this ordinary human still couldn't do anything to her.

"Girl, I didn't expect you to be so sensible to come here by yourself." The man grinned as he walked towards her, rubbing his hands together. "I was still thinking about how I could get you out!"

Tang Xiaotang was thinking about how she should beat him up so that she won't beat him to death, but suddenly, her eyes swept across the map and saw a certain point, and immediately changed her mind.

"What do you want?" Only when Tang Xiaotang looked carefully did she realize that this man was emitting a faint aura of death. Because it was night, when that black aura of death mixed with the darkness, she really did not notice it in the beginning.

"As long as you accompany me for one night, I will let you go. Otherwise …" "Hehe, at such a time, dying is nothing!"

The man slowly approached her while laughing arrogantly, "Don't worry, this grandpa will love you dearly!"

Tang Xiaotang closed his eyes and calmly retreated. Only after hearing the man's pained moans did she slowly open his eyes.

A black cloak floated in the air before him, but the man held his chest and fell to the ground in pain. His eyes were bulging, his face was distorted, and his mouth was wide open as he screamed, "Save me!"

Tang Xiaotang would definitely not save him, she only looked at the cape in front of her. She knew that she had to seize this chance today.

The man struggled in pain for a while, then died with his eyes wide open. A black halo of light emerged from his body and pounced towards Tang Xiaotang.

However, before he could even get close, a huge black sickle appeared in Death's hand. With a slash of the blade, the circle of light was shattered. The black debris dispersed in the air and then slowly turned into smoke and disappeared.

The Death God kept his sickle and was about to disappear. Tang Xiaotang seized the opportunity to run over and shouted, "Wait! Lord Death God! "

The figure paused before finally coming to a stop. Tang Xiaotang saw him turn around, and his pitch black eyes looked at her. The feeling of being stared at was so clear that he could not be ignored, and with a slight bit of depression, he slowly said with a hoarse voice: "You, can you see me?"

"Yes, Lord Death." Tang Xiaotang did not avoid him and looked into his eyes, without a trace of fear: "I can see you, please let me follow you!" she said firmly.
